Adebayo Picks Holes In Student Loan Scheme

The Social Democratic Party (SDP) 2023 presidential candidate, Adewole Adebayo has criticised student loan programme, stressing that the President Bola Tinubu administration should have reduced the cost of education if it wanted to give the average Nigerian access to education.

He said, “I don’t agree with them on their student loan, because all you need to do is bring the cost of education down, and an average person will be able to go to school without needing a loan.

“But even with the loan, they are not able to administer it properly. So anything they touch. The Tinubu Presidency is not a government. It may be a political movement that has now found itself in power. They can now decide to continue to strengthen themselves politically by capturing more governors, more senators and more political parties to join them, but they are not just in government. However, they can also decide to say, let’s sit down; let us stop this and administer the economy,” he said.
